I recently received an e-mail from Michael Braham, eldest
 son of "Bob" Braham, RAF most decorated flier and great
 night fighter ace...
      There is a new book out about "Bob" called "Night
 Fighter Ace" by Tony Spooner, RAF pilot. Mike say it is
 good but a bit too gushy.  There is lots of confusion about
 "Bob" as that was his call-sign name. His real first name
 was John...  Their squadron used first names for call
 signs and being too many "Johns" in the squadron, they
 pulled names from a hat and Braham got "Bob" which most
 of us knew him by.  I knew him when he was a 23 year old
 Wing Commander.
      The best book is is autobiography, "Scramble" if
 you can find a copy... A very modest hero.
